Spotify App of the Day: Tastebuds

Your taste in music says a lot about you. At the very least, it’s a great way to spark a conversation with someone. Now it’s easier than ever to meet people with a similar taste in music thanks to the Tastebuds Spotify App.

How does it work?
The Tastebuds App is free inside Spotify. It’ll scan your most played music and instantly show people near you who have similar tastes. Once you’ve created your account, you can also remove any guilty pleasures by tweaking the bands that appear on your profile.

If you have an account with Last.fm or Songkick, it’s even easier – just enter your username and your preferences will be imported.

Once you’re set up, you can browse matches, listen to your new friends’ favourite music and send them a message if they catch your eye.
